Oh dear, that's terrible, everyone knows you should use dropped
vertically aligned braces in CSS:
.grey
{
color: grey;
}
> <p class="grey"> My Grey Text :) </p>
That's disgusting... now what happens if you want to change the text to
blue? You either have a class called grey that makes the text blue, or
you have to change all the HTML where you used class="grey" which puts
you squarely back into the realm of why the font tag was deprecated.
